Bridging the gap between Shell-scheme and Space-only, our premium booths have a higher value to the exhibitor which gives you a greater return per square metre.
Sustainable exhibitors have gone the extra mile to be eco-friendly and don't want to blend in with the crowd, they deserve to look different. We know because we have been one!
Backed by 35 years of exhibition design and build, we offer comprehensive and stress-free project management of your sustainability zones.
Zero waste, low carbon, no virgin plastic, no VOC's or glues. Moulded in the UK from old exhibition carpet and event flooring, on machines that use less energy than a household kettle. Full end of life solution for every element.
We utilise the best luxury eco-friendly materials and furniture to accessorise the space, such as recycled marble or panels made from old CD's or coffee grinds. We have live working experience at the cutting edge of sustainable design and production.
Sustainability isn't a compromise, it's an exciting and vibrant new world of possibilities.
Informa, the world's biggest exhibition company, were so impressed they sponsored our launch along with isla, the sustainability body for the UK's exhibition industry. They even made a film about us.
"One of the central pillars of a circular economy is feeding materials back into the economy and avoiding waste being sent to landfill or incinerated, thereby capturing the value of the materials as far as possible and reducing losses."

The event industry creates a huge amount of waste and although we can't stop the tide, we can view this as a valuable source of material. We are focused on repurposing plastics that are often virgin or single use - the biggest areas of waste are carpet and fabric graphics.
According to industry reports, there are between 5 to 7 million square metres of events in the UK every year, laying millions of square metres of carpet for just a few day's use. This can be melted back down into pellets so that the plastic can be used again, in our injection moulding tools.
Stretch fabric graphics, which are in fact PET plastic (eg water bottles), have been a staple of the exhibition industry for the last couple of decades. There are no published figures for their total annual quantity, but they can also be converted back into pellets for use in 3D printers and injection moulding.
Using our in-house recycling machines we can repurpose the silicon edging from the fabrics into ramped edging for our raised flooring system. We also grind down our own tiles at end of life so that we can remould our system components - closed loop recycling for a circular solution.
